If you lost two screws take one that's left to the hardware store.
Should be able to find a replacement till the stock ones come in.
Not that I have ever done anything like that

If you go to the hardware look for the chromed nuts and bolts rack. The better hardware stores will have a decent selection. You'll probably have trouble finding an exact match , but you should be able to find something that will look good and work.

Re:help i really screwed up this time 2 Months ago  
Elliots Hardware here in my area has a massive selection of hardware. Chrome, button head, allen head, hex head all sorts of stuff in every finish you can think of SS, chrome ect. That's the first place I head for to replace my bolts nuts ect. Not sure if they are all over the US but from the size of the store they muct be.

I usually just end up with extra parts, which I promptly hide and forget about... (Until I really really need them and can't find them...)

In the United States, Lowe's usually has a pretty wide variety of fasteners that should serve you in the interim.

Good luck!
